Whether you need a LinkedIn-ready profile, a corporate portrait for company use, or a strong personal-brand image, the priority is always on honesty, clarity and purpose. The way Martyn works is straightforward and client-centred. Sessions begin with a brief conversation to understand how you want to appear—professional, approachable, authoritative or creative—so each frame supports your objectives. In the studio you’ll find a calm, well-controlled environment where lighting and posture are used to bring out the best in each subject. Martyn’s direction is clear and encouraging, aimed at helping even the most camera-shy clients relax and deliver natural expressions. What sets Martyn Hicks Photography apart is the blend of commercial discipline and editorial sensitivity. Experience shooting portraits for business contexts means images are composed with application in mind—tight crops for profile images, confident three-quarter poses for corporate use, and flexible files for marketing and press. At the same time, an editorial sensibility ensures portraits retain character and personality rather than looking overly staged. Clients value the efficient, professional process: a concise pre-shoot briefing, a focused studio session, and considered finishing so final images present crisply across web and print. Martyn understands the practical needs of business portraits—from consistent look across teams to files that work across LinkedIn, websites and corporate comms—while still delivering portraits that feel individual. Based in Chorley, Martyn Hicks Photography is dedicated to helping professionals and organisations present themselves with confidence. If you want a portrait that balances credibility with character, the studio offers a direct, dependable route to images that work where it matters most.
